Guitard turned bassist, bass is good :) hello

[Prime_BASS]

My name is Stephen.
I am a chef by trade, and all funds go towards GAS, which I have constantly.
Although I am hoping to start uni this year I will never sell my bass gear.
After playing guitar for 6 years, I took up bass.

I never put my bass down every spare minute is spent playing, or listening to bass lines.

Currently I'm running a fender jaguar bass or a 1985 fender power jazz bass special with a quarter pounder in the neck, through a Mashall MB4210, but I just got a great deal on ampeg SVT-3 pro, and I'm currently in the process of getting a barefaced bass compact.

Out of the 10 or so gigs I've done so far I've some considarable praise for playing, so I must be dong something right :S
I like to think I'm quite versatile player and I've picked up playing finger and slap quite well
but I'm no speed demon.

For those interested my guitar gear is
epiphone dot studio in bright yellow
squier tele custom 2.
Orange ad140HTC and PPC 4x12

Welcome to basschat.

And no, never sell your gear, I did that once, very silly.

All the best

Welcome and don't let the 6 strings go either...

Letting them go is tempting at times to buy even more bass gear, or to live because whatever money is spare disappears.

Also I find that being an intermidiate level bassist, your like a very good White Mage (from final fantasy 11) you are rare as anything, and everyone wants you. Unfortunatly no one wants to pay you.
